On “Cotton Candy,” Seven Suns lean fully into romance, pairing their smooth island reggae foundation with a pop-forward melodic sensibility that feels tailor-made for late-night drives and shoreline sunsets. The collaboration with fellow Hawaii artist Fia is a natural one, built on shared roots and an easy vocal chemistry that gives the track its emotional weight without tipping into excess.
The single arrives as Seven Suns continue a major upward arc. In 2025, the band dominated Hawaii’s most prestigious music honors, taking home six awards including Reggae Album of the Year, Single of the Year, Music Video of the Year, and Group of the Year. Those wins followed the release of their debut album Many Feathers, which became a staple on Hawaiian radio and helped solidify the band’s presence beyond the islands. A subsequent mainland tour with Collie Buddz further expanded their reach, making “Cotton Candy” feel less like a reset and more like the next confident step forward.
